Examples

The following code example illustrates the use of this method in a class derived from WebBrowser that supplements the normal WebBrowser events with the NavigateError event from the OLE DWebBrowserEvents2 interface.

using System.Security.Permissions;

Remarks

This method is useful if you are familiar with OLE development using the unmanaged WebBrowser ActiveX control and you want to extend the functionality of the Windows Forms WebBrowser control, which is a managed wrapper for the ActiveX control. You can use this extensibility to implement events from the ActiveX control that are not provided by the wrapper control.
